EBC Yellowstuff Rear Brake Pads for Subaru STI 2018-2021

EBC Yellowstuff brake pads are specifically designed for Subaru WRX, STi, and BRZ models. These pads provide outstanding cold bite along with excellent resistance to high-temperature fade, making them ideal for modified street cars in colder climates. Please note that these pads require a bedding process of 100-200 miles and are not recommended for track use. They are sold as a set for either the front or rear brakes. Kindly verify your options in the purchase menu before proceeding.

Specs: 
• Super quiet smooth braking under all conditions, fully shimmed slotted and chamfered construction 
• Excellent cold bite coupled with high-temperature fade resistance 
• Progressive braking with unparalleled pedal feel 
• Drastically reduced stopping distances compared to OE 
• Brake-In coating for accelerated pad bed in period 
• R90 approved thus legal for public highway use in European markets 
• For track use Bluestuff may be a better choice due to bedding in speed which is much shorter with Blue 
• Made with Nucap NRS hooks on back plates to totally eliminate the chance of pad debond 
• Requires 100-200 miles for bedding in 
 
More Info: 
EBC Yellowstuff was upgraded during 2021 to remove copper from the mix to comply with environmental legislations and as the new mix lasts longer, it is NOT being suggested as a track material due to the longer bedding in process required. On the street, bedding happens naturally in the first 100-200 miles of urban use but for those drivers wishing to arrive at the track with new pads and enjoy their day, our current suggestion is to use the Bluestuff formulation for track day driving both front and rear. 
 
EBC Yellowstuff Bed-in Procedure: 
Fast Street use Pre Bed Fade 1 – drive 50 to 100 miles on Public road/highway normal driving to allow the pads to mate up to the disc and establish full contact followed by 8 stops from 80 mph to 30 mph at 300-yard intervals and then coasting allowing the brakes to cool. 
 
If using Yellowstuff on the track... 
Yellowstuff, although track-capable, is no longer recommended for track use on most cars due to its long bed in process. BlueStuff is now the recommended entry-level race pad for all vehicles, which as a track hybrid is still great on the street and even better on track. But if you are to use Yellowstuff on the track, follow the below Fade procedures: 
 
FADE 2 – After the basic street pre-bed above is performed on the road or at the track if installed there …..Perform 10 medium pressure snubs at the track from 80-20mph leaving 300 meters between each snub (approx 0.4g decel) Allow pads to cool for 15 minutes minimum after coasting to the pits allowing brakes to cool a little. 
 
FADE 3 – Perform 6 high-pressure snubs from 90-20mph with a maximum acceleration between consecutive snubs. (approx 0.8g decel, or 80% of an emergency stop) Allow the brakes to fully cool for a minimum of 1 hour before the race session. We advise using disc heat paint to ensure green fade is avoided.
